`
`_______________________________________________________________
`
`
`MOTION TO CORRECT CLERICAL ERRORS IN PETITION
`FOR INTER PARTES REVIEW OF U.S. PATENT NO. 8,380,244
`
`Petitioners respectfully submit this motion to correct clerical errors
`
`identified in the Notice of Filing Date Accorded to Petition and Time for Filing
`
`Patent Owner Preliminary Response that issued on April 2, 2014 (“Notice”). The
`
`motion is supported by the contemporaneously filed Affidavit of Charles M.
`
`McMahon in Support of Motion to Correct Clerical Errors in Petition for Inter
`
`Partes Review of U.S. Patent No. 8,380,244 (“Affidavit”).
`
`On March 21, 2014, Petitioners filed a petition for inter partes review of
`
`
`
`Motion to Correct Clerical Errors in Petition for Inter Partes Review
`Attorney Docket No. 14569.0009
`
`U.S. Patent No. 8,380,244. (Affidavit, ¶ 3.) On April 2, 2013, counsel for
`
`Petitioners received an email message from the Patent Review Processing System
`
`(“PRPS”), which was captioned “Petition Verification” and indicated that “[t]he
`
`Petition has been verified and has been accorded a filing date” of March 21, 2014.
`
`The email message did not indicate, and counsel for Petitioners was unaware, that
`
`other substantive information had become available on PRPS in connection with
`
`the Notice. (Affidavit ¶ 4.)
`
`On April 28, 2014, as part of a routine procedure for downloading PRPS
`
`filings, a paralegal at Brinks, Gilson, & Lione downloaded, but did not circulate,
`
`the detailed Notice. Neither the paralegal nor anyone else at Brinks, Gilson, &
`
`Lione reviewed the notice until May 14, 2014. (Affidavit ¶ 6.)
`
`Late in the afternoon on Wednesday, May 14, 2014, counsel for Petitioners
`
`learned for the first time the Notice contained more detailed information that the
`
`email message received on April 2, 2014. (Affidavit ¶ 7.) The Notice requested
`
`that petitioner correct certain clerical errors within five business days. The clerical
`
`errors included a single-spaced block quotation in the text of the petition and the
`
`omission of certain identifying labels on the exhibits. (Affidavit ¶ 8.)
`
`Early on the morning of Thursday, May 15, 2014, counsel for Petitioners
`
`contacted the Trial Paralegal assigned to this case to discuss the appropriate
`
`procedure for filing a corrected petition. (Affidavit, ¶ 9.)
`
`2
`
`
`
`Motion to Correct Clerical Errors in Petition for Inter Partes Review
`Attorney Docket No. 14569.0009
`
`Pursuant to the instructions received from the Trial Paralegal, counsel for
`
`Petitioners is filing three items using PRPS today: (1) a motion to correct clerical
`
`errors; (2) an affidavit supporting the motion; and (3) the corrected petition.
`
`(Affidavit, ¶ 10.)
`
`Neither the Patent Owner nor its counsel will be prejudiced by the granting
`
`of this motion. They have been aware of this proceeding since around March 21,
`
`2014, when Petitioners served them with a copy of the original petition and
`
`exhibits. On April 11, 2014, counsel for the Patent Owner entered an appearance
`
`in this proceeding. The Patent Owner’s response to the Petition is due on June 21,
`
`2014. Because the corrected petition contains no new arguments or evidence,
`
`makes no substantive changes to the petition, and corrects only clerical errors, it
`
`will not materially prejudice the Patent Owner or its counsel in any way
`
`Dated: May 19, 2014
